Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of laparoscopic nephron sparing surgery in the treatment of T1 renal cell carcinoma. Methods Thirty-two patients (24 males and 8 females) were diagnosed with T1 N0 M0 renal cell carcinoma by ultrasound, CT or MRI and un derwent laparoscopic nephron sparing surgery. The mean age was (49±2)years old (from 31 to 72 years old). The mean tumor diameter was (2.8±0.8)cm. There were 21 tumors in left kidney, 11 in right kidney. Of them, 10 tumors were in upper pole, 13 in lower pole, 5 in kidney center, 4 close to renal hilum, 18 in dorsal side and 14 in ventral side of the kidney. Tumor masses were resected with the surgical margin of 0. 5 cm. Twenty-five cases were done through retroperitoneal approach and 7 cases was done through transperitoneal approach. The pathological results showed that there were clear cell renal carcinoma in 28 cases, granule cell renal carcinoma in 3 cases and oncocytoma in 1 case. Renal function was examined by ECT before and after the surgery. Results Thirty-one cases under went laparoscopic nephron sparing surgery successfully and only one case converted to open surgery due to excessive intra-operative bleeding. The mean renal pedicle blocking time was (24±4)min (from 19 to 52 min). There were 3 cases having blocking time longer than 30 min (38 min, 45 min and 52 min) and accepted secondary blockage during the procedure. The mean operative time was (105 ± 15) rain. The mean estimated blood loss was (120±22)ml. Only 6 cases accepted 400 ml blood transfusion. D-J stents were placed in 5 eases with the tumor in kidney center before operation. In 3 cases with intra-operative exposure of renal calyx, D-J stems were placed after operation. Urine leakage in 2 eases were noted at 2 and 3 days and recovered at 15 and 21 days after operation. The mean hospital stay was (9±2)days. There was no recurrence in a mean follow-up time of (23±5)months. There were 3 cases with local hematoma (1 case of 4 cm × 3 cm, 2 cases of 2 cm×3 cm) in the surgical site confirmed by ultrasound or CT scan 1 month after surgery and they disappeared 3 months after the operation. Serum creatinine and urea nitrogen were all in normal range after operation. Compared with renal blood flow of the operated kidney before operation, there were 9 cases decreased by 10 %- 15 and 3 cases decreased by 20% at 15 days, 7 cases decreased by 10%-15% at 1 month and 3 cases decreased by 10%- 15% at (23 ± 5) months after operation. Conclusion Laparoscopic nephron sparing surgery is one of feasible and safe options for the treatment of T1 renal cell carcinoma.
